Alienated Martial Arts

In the western border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Mozhou fell into the city at night.

City guard Qiang Tan staggered, walking slowly on the damaged city wall.

Facing the setting sun, he turned his gloomy gaze from the retreating army outside the city to the soldiers who suffered equally heavy casualties.

When he stepped on a pool of blood, his feet suddenly slipped. Thanks to the warrior behind him, he reached out to hold him, and he staggered back to his feet.

"What day is it today?"

Qiang Tan slowly exhaled a breath and stretched out his hand to hold on to the mottled city wall.

"Lord City Guard, it was probably the fourteenth or the fifteenth, I can't remember clearly."

"Half a month has actually passed."

Qiang Tan sighed again, "Mr. Liao, what kind of magic do you think can make the people of the Xiji tribe become like this? They have completely lost all their sanity.

Not only are they chaotic and crazy, they are not afraid of death, they even feed on their own kind, and they dare to eat them alive on the battlefield. But I have never seen such a terrible sight. "

The warrior fell into thinking, "In my eyes, their situation is somewhat similar to that of warriors who are driven crazy by the sense of mystery.

Just looking at the level of strength they displayed, although even ordinary people are extremely powerful and are not even afraid of pain, except for a few leaders and priests, there is still a considerable gap between others and the Xuangan realm. So I Some people are not sure what is going on. "

When he said this, he suddenly fell silent.

After waiting for a long time, he continued with some uncertainty, "Those tribal warriors seemed to shout the word giant spirit before every attack. I have been thinking about it for a long time in the past few days, but I have been unable to find the giant spirit." Related information."

"The giant spirit, is it the totem of the gods they worship, something like Brahma in the Northern Wilderness?"

Qiang Tan closed his eyes and thought deeply, then suddenly shook his head after a moment, "No, that's not right, I have been here for many years, and not only do I know everything about the tribes living deep in the Xizhi Mountains, I basically have a rough grasp of their situation.

But I have never heard of any large tribe that worships giant spirits and can cause such large-scale horrific changes.

So, what exactly are giant spirits, and why have the tribes in the West Pole Mountains, which have always adhered to their duties since Emperor Wu of this dynasty, become like this? "

Qiang Tan sighed deeply, "Now the soldiers of the government have suffered heavy losses, and the warriors from various families and gangs in the city have also suffered heavy casualties. If this continues, there will be big chaos before the city is broken."

Mr. Liao lowered his eyes with a wry smile on his face.

"I'm not worried about this, because Luocheng is now surrounded by a bunch of lunatics, and they have nowhere to escape if they want to.

What's more, even if you surrender, you will be dead, and you will still be skinned and deboned. In this case, no matter how heavy the casualties are, everyone must fight desperately. There is no second way. "

Qiang Tan watched the sunset gradually disappear, and couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

"You are right, you can't escape, you can't surrender, you can only fight to the death.

I think if the city is really broken, men, women, old and young must pick up the guy and fight for their lives. After all, it is better to be killed and then become food than to be captured alive and watch the madmen cut the flesh from your body. eat. "

When Mr. Liao heard this, Wen Yan comforted him, "There is no need to be too anxious, Lord City Guards. I think they have become crazy and stupid. They have not made any move to build large-scale siege equipment these days.

Otherwise, we would not have been able to persist for such a long time. Perhaps the city would have fallen long ago and turned into a bloody prison of wanton slaughter, with no living person left.

So as long as we can persist for a while, we may be able to wait for support from the imperial court. "

At this moment, there was a sudden click.

The two people's eyes were immediately attracted towards him.

Not far away, a man wearing leather armor and covered in blood sat leaning against the wall.

He ate very attentively and devotedly.

Unaware that someone was approaching.

Qiang Tan held the handle of the knife.

Mr. Liao stimulated his qi and blood and mobilized his true energy, and his figure quietly expanded.

The two of them cast their gazes on the man, and a faint haze appeared between their eyebrows.

This crazy disease is actually contagious! ?

If it was just a foreign enemy attacking the city, they would still have hope to resist for a longer period of time as long as they were united.

But if something strange happens in the city, a disaster may happen in no time.

Qiang Tan and Mr. Liao looked at each other and were about to take action to capture the man.

A move by the armored soldier made them stop suddenly.

He took two bites, then put half of his arm on the fire nearby to roast, while smearing melted coarse salt on it.

Seeing this scene, Qiang Tan took a long breath, and his tense heart suddenly relaxed a lot.

Also know about barbecue.

It can also apply seasonings carefully.

This means that this person has little or no problem.

"Is this meat delicious?"

Qiang Tan walked over and asked in a low voice.

The man didn't even raise his head and said vaguely, "It's not delicious, it's not as good as pigs and sheep."

After a pause, he suddenly laughed.

But the voice was low and shrill, like a whimpering ghost crying, "My brother was dragged off the city wall by those monsters and eaten by them, so I have to eat them too to truly avenge his blood."

"Eating just meat might not be very tasty. Do you like to drink alcohol on weekdays?"

Taking the wine bag from Qiang Tan, the big man drank a few gulps.

Then he struggled to get up and kowtowed respectfully, "I thank you for the wine."

Qiang Tan moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something more, but in the end he couldn't say a single word. He just patted the big man on the shoulder, then turned around and walked down the city wall.

The night wind blew slowly.

It brought the hoarse shouting of someone in the distance.

"It doesn't matter whether you have practiced martial arts or not. It doesn't matter if you haven't worn armor before. If you are a man, pick up the sword for me and follow me on the city wall. As long as an enemy climbs up, he will be stabbed to death. That's it. Simple things!”

"Don't tell me you're afraid of death. I'm telling you the truth, it's useless to be afraid of death. You might die if you get it, but you'll definitely die if you don't get it. Besides, you're going to be eaten alive by those lunatics. It's better to rush in and get another one!" "

"You guys, remember this, the monsters on the other side are man-eating monsters. They are not human at all. To deal with them, you can only pick up a knife and a gun and kill one monster to earn a profit. Kill two and you will earn one!"

Qiang Tan closed his eyes and sighed after a long time, "How many soldiers are left who have withdrawn from the military town outside the city?"

Mr. Liao replied, "My lord, excluding the dead and seriously injured, less than 20% of those who can still fight are left."

"That's it..."

Qiang Tan took a deep breath and subconsciously touched the wine bag at his waist, but found nothing.

He was silent for a long time, "It is better to select some experienced military soldiers to be the captains of these newcomers. The remaining veterans and warriors above blood coagulation will form two teams as a reserve force. Whenever there is a crisis, they will go there."

After walking for a while, Qiang Tan stopped in the middle of the deserted street and listened to the vibrations and roars coming from outside the city.

"Djinn, Djinn!"

In the darkening night, it sounded particularly scary and terrifying.

Mr. Liao's expression changed, "Lord City Guard, those monsters are trying to attack the city again. I must return to the city wall and keep an eye on them."

Qiang Tan nodded, took off his saber and handed it into his hand, "Go ahead, sir, you are the strongest person in the city. Remember, you must protect yourself. Don't die if you can."

Mr. Liao left quickly and disappeared from sight in a few flashes.

Qiang Tan looked up at the night sky and faintly saw a touch of blood, appearing again from the end of the western sky.

And compared to the past few days, it seems to have become a little more intense.

Just looking at it from a distance makes people feel extremely depressed.

"There are so many big trees in the Xiji Mountains, but they don't build siege engines or door-breaking hammers. They just build ladders and climb up. Is it true, as Mr. Liao said, that these guys have become crazy and at the same time they have become crazy?" Silly?"

"But having said that, even if a bunch of fools keep rushing up to kill and kill, they have already almost wiped out all the available people in the city. If that time comes..."

He muttered to himself, then suddenly fell silent mid-sentence.

A blue rainbow reflected in his eyes, appearing in the dark night sky without any warning.

Qiang Tan rubbed his eyes, an expression of surprise and confusion appeared on his face.

In the center of his pupils, a rising blue lotus was reflected.

The blood at the end of the sky suddenly began to surge violently under the green light, and seemed to become even crazier.

Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew by.

Brings a quiet and elegant fragrance.

There was also the sound of rushing water, which reached my ears at this moment.

Qiang Tan's heart was shaken and he turned around suddenly.

Then he saw a young man and woman appearing a few steps away.

The two of them seemed to have been standing there for a long time, but they were not noticed by him until now.

"Junior sister Mi, he is the lord of this city."

The young man was dressed in a green shirt. Although it was already late autumn, he still held a folding fan in his hand, and he would gently shake it up or down from time to time, showing his relaxed attitude.

"It was he who organized the defense and blocked the attack of those giant blood slaves?"

The woman frowned slightly, "There doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. He is just an ordinary person. But my curiosity was wasted and I came to the city to take a look."

The man smiled slightly, "I told Junior Sister Mi early in the morning that those blood slaves have no sense, they are just idiots who can only obey orders but cannot think independently.

As long as you deal with it properly and have tall walls, it is not difficult to block them for a period of time. "

"What Senior Brother Lu said is absolutely true."

Junior Sister Mi sighed, "It's just that I don't understand. We, Biluotian, are currently fighting against the giant spirit and are facing the constant erosion of the sea of ​​blood. Why should we introduce it into this world? Isn't it just to strengthen the enemy's power?" ?”

"His Royal Highness Biluo is pursuing a plan to divert trouble to the east."

Senior Brother Lu said slowly, "Like Biluotian, this place is one of the fragments of the true world. It has always been called the lost place. It is also directly related to many ancient evils. It is not other ordinary realms of heaven and earth. Can be compared.

Therefore, His Highness introduced the Blood Sea here in order to allow the two sides to have a confrontation, so that they could more easily deal with the threats posed by the giant spirits, and even reap the benefits of the fishermen on this basis.

It's just that the erosion of the power of the Blood Sea is not going well, so we received the order to help the Blood Sea expand its occupation area and increase the number of blood slaves, so that its tentacles can become more and its power can penetrate deeper. "

Junior Sister Mi nodded, her expression thoughtful.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "Last time I heard Miss Qingming mention Taixu, what does this mean?"

"At the beginning, I was not particularly clear about the saying that the true world was above nine heavens and that the gods were wandering in the Taixu."

Senior Brother Lu exhaled softly, "Besides, I also didn't expect that in this lost land, there is actually an entrance to Taixu.

Perhaps those ancient evil spirits were living in the void and hiding themselves with the help of the emptiness of annihilation. "

The two spoke slowly, in a relaxed and casual tone, as if they didn't care that the Lord of Yeluo City was overhearing them.

Qiang Tan did listen, but he was confused and had no idea what the two people were talking about.

All he knew was that they were very powerful, not just ordinary people.

Even Mr. Liao, a martial arts master, may not be a match for the two.

What frightened him even more was that they actually had a sect.

Whether it is His Highness Biluo, Miss Qingming, or the Blood Sea Giant Spirit, the ancient evils are completely beyond his understanding.

Senior Brother Lu looked up at the sky, his eyes falling on the surging dark red clouds, "Let's go, let's hurry up and complete the task. Every time we stay here for a moment, I will be driven crazy by the smell of blood coming from the sea. "

Junior Sister Mi smiled faintly, "It's also interesting. We and Blood Sea are enemies, but now we are helping it expand its territory.

Also, since the sea of ​​blood is brought into this world, why did the higher-ups choose such a remote and desolate place, so that we all have to suffer the hardship of sleeping in the open air. "

"It's because of the remoteness that I chose this place."

Senior Brother Lu lowered his eyes, "Junior Sister Mi should know how many elites Bi Luotian has lost here, including many great monks in the Earth Immortal Realm, but you don't know that they all died in the hands of a madman.

What's more important is that that madman is a warrior in this world, and he is probably living in seclusion in the prosperous mainland of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, compared to some inconvenience, I think my own life is more important. "

"I see. I'm a little interested in what Senior Brother Lu said. I wonder if that lunatic will come here so that I can see what kind of person he is."

"Are you crazy!?"

"Do you also want to be eaten by him!?"

Senior Brother Lu's expression changed, and when he spoke again, his voice was extremely low, "In addition to the already identified Elder Earth Immortal, I heard that Master Naruo also died in this person's mouth. He was eaten clean from head to toe, and he didn't even have any body parts." Spit out a bone!”

"Eat, eat!?"

Junior Sister Mi's throat surged unconsciously, "According to Senior Brother, isn't this person just like those blood slaves..."

"Stop talking. In front of that man, a blood slave is nothing."

Senior Brother Lu looked at him coldly, "I don't like my companions with crow's mouth. Junior Sister Mi, you must pay attention to your words and deeds."

The woman nodded and pointed not far away, "What should I do with this person?"

"He heard too many of our secrets, so we had no choice but to send him to death. We hurry up and complete the mission here. We also have to explore things related to Taixu..."

Senior Brother Lu was mid-sentence and suddenly fell silent.

He frowned and looked around.

Probe carefully and deeply to find out.

It seemed as if something was wrong, but he couldn't determine where it was.

Suddenly, the night wind blew slowly, bringing a bit of coolness.

Senior Brother Lu's body suddenly tensed up and he stared at Junior Sister Mi's back.

She was walking towards Yeluo City Shou, still thinking about an interesting way to take his life with her own hands.

At this moment, she stopped without warning.

The expression on his face was confused and confused, with a bit of uncontrollable surprise and fear.

"Senior Brother Lu, I have some pain in my neck."

Junior Sister Mi spoke, her voice no longer as cold and clear as before, but with a hint of hoarse vibrato for no apparent reason.

She turned her head little by little and looked behind her.

"Junior sister, your..."

Senior Brother Lu's pupils narrowed and he muttered to himself.

A thin red line appeared on her neck.

Then it quickly spread towards both sides.

"Brother, what's wrong with me?"

She opened her mouth and wanted to raise her hand to touch.

When the fingertips came to the neck, they felt inexplicably nothing.

Her head was gone.

Disappeared without warning.

Even Senior Brother Lu, who had been staring at it, couldn't really understand why such a big head disappeared under his nose.

It's like magic.

It came so strangely and suddenly.

Uh-huh...

Silently, another wisp of breeze blew by.

It brings the bright atmosphere of spring to all things.

There was also a gentle and indifferent female voice, which came at the same time.

"Since going to that place, Senior Sister Sun's indifference has improved to a higher level. It's really gratifying."

"Junior sister Ni Hao is the same. On the basis of Dongfang Jiayimu, she also cultivates the power of emptiness and annihilation, which actually corresponds to the true meaning of the Tao of Yin and Yang."

Senior Brother Lu's heartstrings instantly tightened to the limit, and he instinctively wanted to use his skills to escape from this place.

But he couldn't even move.

Because there were three auras surrounding him.

There was no room for him to escape.

"According to what this Biluotian monk said, the place we explored last time might be the entrance to Taixu. Perhaps Emperor Wu's power of annihilation and nothingness came from there."

A figure in white clothes and skirt appeared out of nowhere and quietly appeared in the middle of the long street.

At this moment, the fanatical giant roar disappeared.

The illusory green lotus full of evil also disappeared into the dark night sky.

Even the noisy voices in the city and the clash of armor and weapons as they ran disappeared without a trace at the same time.

Only this delicate figure in white clothes and white skirt was left, occupying almost all of his consciousness and perception.

Sun Xiyue turned around and glanced, "Junior Sister Yunhong, how long will it take for you to control his mind?"

"It still takes a while, but it will be easier if Senior Sister beats him half to death."

There was a muffled sound.

Senior Brother Lu vomited blood and fell limply to the ground, twitching.

Completely lost the ability to resist.

"Who are you……"

Qiang Tan suddenly came back to his senses, looking at the three women who looked like immortals in front of him, he felt like he was in a cloud for a while.

"My surname is Sun, and my double name is Xiyue. I am a disciple of the Xuanwu Dao of the Great Zhou Sect."

She said slowly, "The city guard can relax now and tell me what happened recently."

………………

……………………

Deep in the dense forest, a faint stream of light flickered.

Submerged into a towering tree.

He accurately drilled into one of the tree holes.

Throughout, the jungle was quiet.

It was as if this stream of light had never come.

It is also unable to attract the attention of any living being.

Time passed little by little.

Unknowingly, the night gradually faded away, and day came as scheduled.

A glimmer of light broke through the clouds, dispersing all the darkness.

Click...

Suddenly a soft sound broke the silence in the forest.

A sickle-like jointed limb poked out from inside the tree hole, followed by a second one.

Wei Tao slowly pulled out his body and stood carefully among the branches and leaves.

He slowly lowered his head and looked at the distracted body, with a speechless expression on his face.

Even though he had never cared about his figure and appearance, Wei Tao couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

What the hell is this?

It feels like a cross between a human and an insect.

Or to put it more accurately, he should now be a mantis man, or he can be called a grasshopper man.

Whether it is the wings that can be opened on the back or the extra sharp jointed limbs, the characteristics of insects are fully revealed.

It's a complete hybrid.

Wei Tao was silent for a long time, sighed secretly again, and then began to absorb the fragmented memories.

When he thought of this, he was suddenly a little surprised.

It's just an insect, but it still has such a rich memory?

He even took on the title of supervisor.

He also has a group of subordinates who can be driven.

"Interesting, this time it turned out to be a bug, and it was a bug monster with a human body."

"It reminds me of Xi Mu and Qing Mantis, but I don't know if they have any connection with this world."

Wei Tao continued to absorb memory fragments and quickly figured out his identity.

The body occupied by the distraction turned out to be an insect farming.

And he is a manor owner.

Leading a group of things called sandflies, they cultivate a plant called the Hollow Flower in a clearing in the forest.

In addition, most of the memory fragments have been broken and blurred, making it difficult to successfully obtain more useful information.

Wei Tao stood in the treetop, silently lost in thought, until a buzzing sound interrupted his thoughts.

An old man with a human face, a stooped body, and two pairs of wings flew to the tree and saluted respectfully from a few steps away.

"Supervisor, the picking of ethereal flowers this autumn has ended. The total weight is 128 kilograms. However, due to the influence of summer thunderstorms and the attack by poisonous armor last month, this year's weight is lower than last year. Thirty percent of the output.”

When he said this, his tone couldn't help but lowered, "There is one more thing that needs to be reported to the steward. According to the usual practice in previous years, the Lingdie clan's envoy will be coming soon. We must start preparing to welcome the envoy's arrival. ."

Wei Tao searched for relevant information in the memory fragments and asked directly, "What is the envoy of the Spirit Butterfly clan doing when he comes to us?"

Sandfly raised his head, a surprised expression appeared on his old face, "Has the chief steward forgotten that the envoy came here to collect ethereal flower petals, which is also our main job here."

"Oh, I hit my head last night and forgot a lot of things."

Wei Tao fooled him casually, "Let's go, take me to see those ethereal flowers. On the way, you can tell me what the so-called Spirit Butterfly clan is."

Sandfly was stunned again after hearing this, as if he couldn't believe his ears, let alone that these disrespectful words came from the mouth of the chief steward.

But he still suppressed his surprise and continued speaking honestly.

After walking through the forest for a while, Wei Tao finally became familiar with this body. He got rid of the crooked posture and could perfectly control his flight trajectory.

Another moment passed.

He landed in a forest clearing.

There was already a group of sandflies waiting there.

Further away, there are large ethereal flower beds.

There are also some slender sandflies flying around in the middle of the busy.

Old Sandfly quickly took out a pack of collected ethereal flowers and handed them to Wei Tao.

"Chief steward, these are the petals that have just been picked. Please take a look at them..."

Old Sandfly was halfway through his words when his voice suddenly stopped.

With a frightened expression on his face, he watched Wei Tao stuff the entire package into his mouth, chew it a few times, and then swallow it.

"Is this the ethereal petal?"

Wei Tao closed his eyes and slowly exhaled a white breath, "It tastes good and is rich in nutrients. It is indeed a good thing."

"Big, big boss."

The old sandfly looked pale and spoke incoherently, "This is a tribute to the noble Spirit Butterfly. Why did you just start eating it?"

"If the Spiritual Butterfly envoy blames us later, we may all face disaster."

Wei Tao frowned slightly, "The harvest is more than one hundred kilograms. As the manager here, what's the big deal if I eat a few mouthfuls? This is normal fire consumption, do you understand?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the waiting team of sandflies.

"We are all servants of Lingdie. Naturally, we cannot do such disobedient and deceptive actions. When the envoy of Lingdie arrives, I will report the matter truthfully and see how the envoy will handle it."

The old sandfly turned his head and looked at a young fellow, his expression suddenly becoming more anxious.

Click! ! !

There was a sudden crisp sound.

The young sandfly was still talking, and his face suddenly turned pale.

He slowly lowered his head and looked at the extra blade on his chest, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Chief steward, you actually, you actually want to take my life."

Click!

The blade-like jointed limbs were pulled out and then thrust in again.

Wei Tao opened his mouth wide and took a bite.

“It’s just as it should be for bugs to eat bugs.”

"Any one of you who dares to talk nonsense will become my snack no matter whether the so-called Spirit Butterfly Master comes or not."
