Beiyin Great Sage

Xing Qi is a veteran, less than thirty years old, but looks like a middle-aged man in his forties, with sallow and haggard skin.

He held a picked up scimitar in his hand, bowed slightly, and carefully walked through the ruins alley.

Thanks to outsiders.

Although Jicheng is still dangerous today, it is no longer full of monsters, and some places are relatively safe.

As a former scout, Xing Qi's awareness of danger is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Especially after reaching the fourth level of blood exchange, he has sharp ears and eyes, sharp reflexes, and his physique is even more exaggerated than that of the former special forces king.

After a while.

His figure appeared next to a leaning building.

"Uh-huh!"

Pointing his toes to the ground, Xing Qi looked like a flexible ape, using his hands and feet to climb up with the help of the irregular bumps outside the building.

Not long after, he jumped to more than 30 floors.

"You came."

This is an office building. Each floor is extremely empty. The tiles on the floor are cracking slowly. A person stands at attention with his hands behind his hands and waits.

"Um."

Seeing the other party, Xing Qi breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, as if he suddenly felt a sense of security. He lightly patted the dust on his body and said:

"Yin Tou, why are you here in person today?"

"Xiaohai had an accident the day before yesterday." Yin turned around, his white hair flying from the temples, his eyes showed a little loneliness, and he spoke slowly:

"In the future, I will take over from him."

"Xiao Hai..." Xing Qi paused slightly, his eyes complex.

Since the appearance of the Blood Moon, too many people have been killed, and there are very few survivors in Daji City. This kind of thing should have been used to it.

But Xiaohai's identity is different.

He was the nephew of the man in front of him. After his parents, wife and children were all killed, Xiaohai was the only relative around him.

"Why!"

Xing Qi sighed:

"Yin Toujie mourns and obeys the changes."

"Everyone will die sooner or later. I have looked away now." Yin Tou waved his hand and said:

"How's the situation over there?"

"I was about to say it." Xing Qizhengshen said:

"Ever since I learned about the situation in this underground winery, I have been trying to integrate into it, and I finally joined the group of survivors not long ago."

"As the rumors say, this place is indeed a stronghold for outsiders."

"and!"

His eyes lit up and his breathing became a little rapid:

"Among the outsiders, there is a man who walked out of the earth. His name is Zhou Jia. His strength is not weak among the outsiders. During this time, he has been protecting the survivors of the winery."

"Really?" Yin Tou's eyes lit up, and for a moment he even suppressed the sadness of his loved ones being killed:

"Can he take care of more people?"

"This..." Xing Qi hesitated, thought for a while, and then said:

"Yin Tou, although Zhou Jia is very powerful, I feel that his personality is too cold. Although he says he is protecting the survivors in the winery, in fact he doesn't show up for days at a time. Normally, he doesn't see anyone at all."

"Just two days ago, a person close to him was tortured to death by outsiders, and he didn't say a word. He just accepted the other party's apology and settled the matter."

"Yeah." Yin Tou frowned and said slowly:

"He was under the eaves and had to lower his head. After all, he was just one person. He might have done his best to protect so many survivors."

"We can't expect that much."

"But he doesn't intend to continue taking care of it." Xing Qi said:

"I heard from a man named Liang Xingzhi that Zhou Jia will leave us to others and will not follow us all the time."

"Um."

"Liang Xingzhi's father is Zhou Jia's friend, and thanks to this, he has a good reputation among the survivors. He is a quite ordinary young man."

"Good luck!"

He didn't say much about Liang Xingzhi's comments.

The exclusion is often nameless, and to be honest, there is nothing wrong with that. He stole his girlfriend and got pregnant. Whoever it was, he probably wouldn't be able to bear it.

"Leave it to someone else?" Yin Tou's eyes changed:

"How many people can he arrange?"

"How many of you are there?"

Suddenly, a slightly cold voice sounded.

"who?"

Yin Tou looked solemn, turned around suddenly, and a violent source of power burst out instantly, gathering his fists and blasting towards the shadows behind him.

"Peng!"

The fist that could shatter fine steel was wrapped in a big hand, and the huge force quietly melted away in the palm, which also made Yin Tou's complexion change drastically.

"Black Iron."

Zhou Jia walked out of the darkness and looked at the other party in surprise:

"It's amazing. In this fragmented world, in just a few months, someone new has achieved Black Iron. You are very lucky."

In this world fragment, there is no saying that the monsters you encounter are stronger than the previous ones.

You may have just killed a third-grade mortal, and you may encounter the existence of late-stage Black Iron, and there will be no time for you to survive.

That's why I say, I'm lucky.

Only if you are lucky enough can you save your life on the basis of improving your cultivation.

Chang Wuming also walked out and looked at the two of them with curiosity. He did not expect that Xing Qi, who had just joined the winery not long ago, actually had another identity.

And this ‘Yin Tou’ turned out to be a strong black iron man!

"Zhou Jia!"

After seeing the person clearly, Xing Qi said hurriedly:

"Yin Tou, he is Zhou Jia."

"Oh!" Yin Tou's face moved slightly, and he slowly put away his fist:

"Zhou Jia?"

"It's me." Zhou Jia nodded and asked again:

"How many of you are there?"

Yin Tou looked thoughtful, paused and said:

"Can we trust you?"

"Heh..." Zhou Jia chuckled:

"Come to think of it, if you had other choices, you wouldn't come here."

"..." Yin Tou's expression darkened.

a long time.

Fang slowly nodded:

"You are right. Although I have the cultivation of black iron, it is still difficult to survive in Jicheng, not to mention having to take care of so many people."

"how many people?"

"Eight hundred and fifty-three!" Yin Tou said:

"At least there were eight hundred and fifty-three more before I came."

Zhou Jia's face turned serious.

The changes in Jicheng are far more dangerous than ordinary world fragments. There are very few survivors in such a large and prosperous city.

And most of them are hidden in unknown places.

There are dozens of people in the underground winery, which can be considered a large survivor base.

Never thought about it.

There are actually more than 800 people somewhere?

"amazing!"

He looked at the other party with admiration on his face:

"I don't know what to call my friends?"

You can imagine how difficult it is to take care of more than 800 people in this kind of apocalypse. Zhou Jia asked himself that he would never be able to do it.

Although the other party's cultivation is insufficient, what he does is admirable.

"My name is Yin Ji, an auxiliary police officer." Yin Ji said:

"It's nothing, just trying our best, and we don't have much food rations there anymore, and we can hardly sustain it."

"Otherwise, I won't find you."

The daily consumption of food and drink for more than 800 people is an extremely terrifying figure. If there are some mortals among them, it will be shocking.

A granary can be eaten up in a short time!

"I can't help you with that."

Zhou Jia shook his head, saw the other person's face change color, and said:

"But there's someone who can help."

As he spoke, he tapped his palms:

"Mr. Zheng, come out!"

"Huh?"

A sound of surprise came from the darkness, and a few people felt the breeze rippling in the field. The next moment, a white-haired old man appeared in front of them.

The old man was dressed in a gray robe, with a thin body and a flying white beard. He had a certain air of Taoism and immortality.

It is Mr. Zheng, the leader of the Eagle's Nest.

Mr. Zheng looked at Zhou Jia and said in surprise:

"How did you find me? If my Qing Gong hadn't failed around other people, you would have thought it was my own problem."

The Tianpeng Zongheng method is extremely exquisite, and in terms of rank, it may not be inferior to the Five Thunder Ax method.

Mr. Zheng was even more proud of this, but in front of Zhou Jia, it failed repeatedly. Every time he was not close, he was detected in advance.

No matter how he hides it, it's useless.

"Now seems not the time to talk about this." Zhou Jia stretched out his hand to signal:

"There are so many people, what are you going to do?"

Before coming, he had made an agreement with the people in the Eagle's Nest. After the fragments of the world appeared in the Ruin Realm, the Eagle's Nest would enter the fragments through the Sky Babel.

Then meet inside.

Zhou Jia has been leaving clues in various places, and he really waited for someone to come.

It just came a little late.

"Um."

Speaking of business, Mr. Zheng had a solemn expression:

"Before this, no one expected that the world fragments this time would come from the earth or Jicheng, and I was not prepared."

"More than eight hundred people..."

His face darkened:

"The source marrow is not enough!"

Except for Zhou Jia, whether it is sending people into the world fragments or taking people out, energy is consumed, and it is not a small amount.

There are more than 800 people. Although they have just obtained a few source marrows from the Tianhu Gang, it is still far from enough.

Zhou Jia spoke:

"How many people can we pick up?"

"A hundred at most." Mr. Zheng smiled bitterly:

"There's a high probability that even a hundred people won't be able to pick them up."

There was silence.

Although Yin Ji and others did not know the identity of Mr. Zheng, they could tell that the other party was also from the earth, and his strength was limited, so it was impossible to take away so many people.

"It doesn't matter."

Zhou Jia looked calm:

"Even if you can't get the Eagle's Nest, you can still follow the Xuantian Alliance. As long as the world fragments and the Ruins Realm are completely integrated, you will have a chance to survive."

"Having said that, I can still take away one by one." Mr. Zheng slowly shook his head:

"Furthermore, Xuantian Alliance's style may not be much better than that of the military. Unless they are of the same clan, it is still unknown how long the remaining people will survive."

"I will try my best to get more source marrow, but..."

"Not very likely!"

The two of them knew how rare source marrow was. Almost all of them were controlled by major ethnic groups and top forces, and there were only a few scattered around.

"correct."

Zhou Jia shook his head slightly and looked at Yin Ji:

"Where are your people?"

Mr. Zheng also looked at it with curiosity.

Although Jicheng is not small, and its size has increased many times after the mutation, it can hide more than 800 people and provide them with food and drink for several months without being discovered.

I still can't think of such a place.

"..."

Yin Ji looked at the two of them seriously, thought for a moment, and then spoke slowly:

"The edge of Thousand Buddha Mountain."

The two raised their eyebrows.

Today's Jicheng, after two months of exploration by outsiders, most places have been figured out, and several major dangers have been identified.

Thousand Buddha Mountain is one of them.

It can even be said that it is the most dangerous place.

Even the existence of the Black Iron Peak is greatly feared.

Where Qianfo Mountain is located, both humans and monsters would stay away from it, but Yin Ji chose a good place to seek stability amid danger.

"Go and take a look first."

Mr. Zheng said:

"Then..., I can only pick out some of them first."

"But there is no rush. My strength is pretty good. You are still in the novice stage. I will try my best to help you improve your cultivation."

Yin Ji and Xing Qi's eyes lit up.

Chang Wuming's heart quickened even more and he glanced at Zhou Jia subconsciously.

Comparatively speaking, Zheng Lao was far more enthusiastic than Zhou Jia as a 'senior' who had left the earth, and he even took the initiative to offer such help.

Use the power of black iron to help newcomers improve their cultivation. As long as they don't die, their cultivation will definitely soar like a rocket.

The reason why Zhou Jia is not like this.

One is a cold temperament,

Secondly, he doesn't have that much time. It's obviously more cost-effective for him to increase his own cultivation, and he doesn't expect others to help him in the future.

As for Mr. Zheng.

He has no hope of going any further. Instead, he cares more about the development of the Eagle's Nest, and is naturally more willing to help others improve their cultivation.

If there were two or three more black irons, life in the Eagle's Nest would be much easier in the future.

"Give!"

Zhou Jia flicked his hand and threw out a ring:

"What you get from one person."

"Storage ring." Mr. Zheng stretched out his hand to take it, his eyes lit up, and when he sensed the densely packed treasures containing essence inside, his breathing shortened.

so many?

Suddenly he looked up:

"you……"

"Thank you very much!"

He looked deeply at Zhou Jia, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded heavily.

Although in the eyes of others, Zhou Jia is cold and inhumane, Mr. Zheng has seen the softer side in his heart.

It's just that this softness is not too showy.

And it will only be slightly revealed when you are protected, and in most cases it will be unknown.

"Do not worry about me."

Putting away the ring, Mr. Zheng chuckled:

"With that piece of clothing you gave me, made of kongcao, my current lightness skills are no longer weaker than those of those top black iron masters."

"When you encounter someone you can't beat, there's no problem in running away."

"Um."

Zhou Jia nodded, turned around and walked back.

"Don't you go to Qianfo Mountain to have a look?"

"No."

flower garden.

A man in gray clothes and a crack between his eyebrows squatted in front of a three-color exotic flower, his eyes sparkling.

"Third-grade Langya flower!"

"How can it be?"

The man murmured, his body trembling slightly:

"How could something like this appear in a place like this?"

Glancing around, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had thought of something, his face showed contemplation, and then his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

…………

For Zhou Jia, the fragmented world is simply a treasure land.

Source-quality treasure medicine is produced every day. After taking it and refining it, the cultivation level increases at a speed visible to the naked eye, which is nothing more than a thousand miles a day.

It was a few days later when we returned to the underground winery again.

The winery was as bustling as ever.

But as he stepped in, the clutter in the field gradually disappeared, and eyes with scrutiny fell from the air.

"Zhou Jia!"

A loud shout sounded from the crowd.

One person separated the others, strode out, and came with an angry look:

"Mr. Zhou, did you kill Senior Brother Bai?"

"Senior Brother Bai?"

"Bai Ju! Senior Brother Bai!"

Zhou Jia raised his eyebrows, his expression unchanged:

"I do not know what you're talking about?"
