Chen Mo looked at the scene in front of him. Countless soldiers were on duty, and the prison car was closely guarded.

Not far away, there were eleven or twelve corpses scattered around, all of them should be Qi Refiners.

It seems that I arrived a step late and the fighting here has ended.

"Uncle Zhou." Chen Mo saluted hurriedly when he saw Zhou Dong approaching.

"What happened to your armor? You're not injured, are you?" Zhou Dong's eyes kept glancing back and forth at Chen Mo.

Although he still looked rosy and uninjured, his armor and the clothes he had previously worn were gone. You don't need to think about it to know that you must have experienced a rather dangerous fight.

"That's not the case. I met a few stronger Qi Practitioners and my armor and clothes were damaged, but I wasn't seriously injured.

After killing them, he took off their clean clothes and put them on. "Chen Mo's tone was calm and his expression remained unchanged.

Because he was telling the truth, he really hadn't met any strong people, at least he hadn't met any strong people who could hurt him.

"As long as it's okay, I think all the Qigong warriors who came to rob our prison car should be killed.

However, this group of people is also bold, and only one of them dared to pick a fight with me in the early stages of foundation building. "

Zhou Dong's tone was quite confident, and it was clear that a monk in the early stages of foundation building was no match for him.

"Uncle Zhou, did you kill that foundation-building monk?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

He heard his adoptive father say that although Uncle Zhou's cultivation was not perfect, he had already opened the two gates of heaven and earth, and he could definitely be regarded as a middle-stage acquired cultivator.

A monk in the early stage of foundation building was indeed no match for him.

It’s just that he doesn’t know which realm of foundation building the foundation-building monk he just killed belongs to.

"Of course, once the foundation-building monk dies, we will basically be safe this time." Zhou Dong nodded lightly.

After the death of a foundation-building cultivator, even if there were other Qi-refining cultivators, they would never dare to come and stop them easily.

As for the powerful Jin Dan?

Every one of them is counted, and it is impossible to move them easily.

Seeing Chen Mo coming back, Mo Hu also hurried over to greet him.

"Fifth brother." Chen Mo felt relieved when he saw that he was safe.

"It's good that you're okay, otherwise I won't be able to explain to my adoptive father when I go back." Mo Hu came over with a smile and patted his shoulder.

"Take turns to rest, don't relax." Zhou Dong also ordered loudly at this time.

Many soldiers went to collect the corpses and clean the battlefield.

Of course, the corpses of these Qi Refiners will not be left behind, but will be burned to prevent them from being dead or accidental fraud.

In fact, the corpses of these Qi Refiners are quite valuable, but only if they are relatively complete.

The corpses in front of them obviously did not qualify as complete.

After disposing of the corpse, everyone continued on their way. They walked for several days and finally came to an empty city.

The empty city is dilapidated and silent. The city gate is wide open, and many bones can be seen with the naked eye.

Those were all people who were starving to death. They were so hungry that they had no strength and didn't even have the chance to beg for a living.

The army did not enter the city. Zhou Dong ordered people to station outside the city. He called Chen Mo and Anyang Mansion to guard the two of them and entered the city with him.

"There are too many people starving to death in the city here, and a ruin realm may form. Although there are strong men from the Supervisor Tiansi stationed there, we still have to be careful."

Zhou Dong stepped forward and Chen Sheng explained to the two of them.

There are many things he can only tell Chen Mo and Anyang Mansion Guards, because they are the only two people who are strong enough and understand these things.

For those who don't know, it's better to hide it from them first. Knowing too much is not a good thing.

The three of them passed through the city gate. The city was still quite quiet, but there was an altar clearly visible at the highest point.

"Where are the officials of the Supervisory Office?" Zhou Dong shouted in a deep voice. He obviously used his inner energy to shout, and his voice was not very penetrating but extremely powerful.

After the words fell, not long after, dozens of figures appeared in the city, the leader of whom was an old Taoist priest with immortal style.

He has white hair and a childish face, wearing a bright red Taoist robe, holding a fly whisk in his hand, and has a rather kind face.

Although it is a Taoist robe, it can be seen from the logo embroidered on his Taoist robe that this Taoist priest is a fifth-rank official.

"The men were busy building the altar, but they were negligent and failed to notice the general coming."

The old man walked over in three steps and opened his mouth to explain.

"It doesn't matter, building the altar is a big deal, as long as it can be completed on time." Zhou Dong said with a smile.

All of them are busy in order to complete the sacrifice on time. As long as this can be done, nothing else matters.

"I have brought the sacrifices, and you can enter the city at any time." Zhou Dong said again.

"There is no danger in this city. The army can enter with confidence." Old Supervisor Tiansi said.

Zhou Dong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered Anyang Mansion to guard and let him lead his army into the city.

"In addition to the prisoners, I also brought some dry food and water for your supplies. I just don't know how many days it will take to repair the altar." Zhou Dong asked in a deep voice.

“In three days, this altar will be completed, and in six days, the sacrificial ceremony will begin.

At that time, the twelve altars in Qingzhou will offer sacrifices at the same time, and they will surely be able to seal the drought demon. "

The old man in red opened his mouth slowly and told the court the plan it had already made.

Not only had the imperial court already made this plan, but it had also informed most of the forces in the world.

When the court conducts its royal affairs, what is important is to be upright and have no fear of anyone coming to stop it.

"Is there any water source in the city?" Zhou Dong thought for a moment and asked.

Qingzhou is desolate. In addition to the lack of food, the most important thing is the lack of water.

If there is sufficient water, they can continue to stay here and wait until the sacrifice ceremony is over before leaving.

If not, then at most they have to wait until the altar is built, otherwise they may die of thirst here.

"I observed the surging water veins in the mountains and rivers, found a new well in the city, and used a secret method to open it. Although it is affected by the drought, it can still last for more than a month." The old man in red said.

Droughts will bring drought, but the area they are in now is not the core area, and the impact is far less serious.

What's more, even if there is a drought, it will not cause all the water to disappear, but will slowly disappear.

A newly found well is definitely fine for drinking in a short period of time, but it cannot be used for farming.

And if the Hanba is not sealed, wells like this will be opened sooner or later, and they will be exhausted sooner or later.

"Then I will lead my army to stay here for six days and wait until everything is over before leaving." Zhou Dong nodded.

The imperial court does not look at the process of doing things, but only looks at the results. Even if he sends all the prisoners here safely, as long as the sacrifice here cannot be completed safely, then he has not done a good job.

On the contrary, even if he didn't do anything, he didn't even come in person.

But as long as the thing entrusted to him is completed, then he will have a piece of credit.

Many soldiers entered the city and began to clean the streets and houses for habitation.

Many houses in the city are no longer habitable. Only the bluestone houses are still standing strong and can be inhabited with a little cleaning.

Zhou Dong ordered people to take good care of the prisoners and ensure that they were all alive.

The vitality of these prisoners is far better than that of ordinary people. Although they are all restricted now, they still have a breath and will not die in a short period of time.

The amount of food brought is quite abundant. Even if it is really not enough, horses can be killed to make up for it.

Chen Mo did not let go of his appetite during this period and only ate a small amount of food every day.

Firstly, the dry food is really not delicious, and secondly, I have to save food now, and it is not appropriate to eat too much by myself.

However, he took advantage of this period of time to drink the mirages one by one. The energy and blood contained in the fifteen pieces of mirages was quite a lot.

For the Mortal Transformation Pearl in his body, it increased his qi and blood by half a percent, reaching more than 40 percent.

After digesting all the gains gained this time, you can prepare for the next rebirth.

Three days later, the altar was repaired, and six days later, the soldiers led the prisoners onto the altar.

Officials of the Supervisory Department are waiting for the auspicious time to start the sacrifice.

Thousands of miles away from here, on a huge altar in the center of Qingzhou.

Bai Bubai is tall and has a firm and solemn face. He is wearing a black python robe and looks at the many relatives, friends and powerful people in front of him.

"I hope you can keep your promise and take care of my descendants and relatives for me."

He actually knew why he suddenly woke up from his deep sleep. Someone must have done something to wake him up and let him know about Qingzhou.

There was no doubt that he was being plotted against.

But he no longer cares about this. No matter what, he does not want to see the power of Drought Demon continue to expand.

I don’t know how many people will starve to death!

…………

"The auspicious time has arrived." A loud shout sounded.

Chen Mo looked at the prisoners detained on the altar. For just a moment, the breath of all of them was weakening, and even their bodies were gradually shrinking.

Their life essences flowed into the altar, and the formations engraved on the altar integrated these forces into the space between heaven and earth, echoing the altars in other places in Qingzhou.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely bright light erupted from the center of Qingzhou, like the roar of thunder, and the earth was shaking.

In just a few breaths, Chen Mo instantly felt something different. With the rumble of thunder, the air he breathed became moist.

The entire Qingzhou mountains and rivers are changing at a speed visible to the naked eye all the time.

The ruins recede, and the mirage returns again.

Those Qi Refiners have already activated secret techniques or secret treasures in advance to ensure that even if they are exposed, they will not be dragged into the mirage.

A heavy rain falls naturally, moistening the long-dried earth.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the city. Even if those loess huts collapsed one after another, no one was hurt.

The heavy rain continued for almost a day, and then it slowly stopped until everything in the world was wet.

The army stayed here for two more days before setting out to evacuate.

Those Qi Refiners left first and tried their best to get to various cave heavens and blessed places.

A few days later, many soldiers finally left the border of Qingzhou after an exhausting and muddy journey, and saw a rare human habitation.

"All the patrol guards will dismiss Xiu Mu on the spot and rush back to the city in one month."

Zhou Dong shouted an order to all the sky patrol guards.

This time of busy running back and forth, something happened here, so naturally it is time for people to take a good rest.

In addition, if the sacrifice is completed safely, then everyone will have merit. Not to mention the big merit, it can be regarded as a small merit, and there will be some reward from the court later.

"You two have also contributed a lot this time. I will go to the court later and ask for credit for you two."

After arranging many sky patrols, Zhou Dong looked at Mo Hu and Chen Mo again.

If other officials were in charge of this matter, then the two of them would have to work hard at most.

But since Zhou Dong is in charge, it's different. As long as they mention it in the official document above, the two of them will have merit.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhou." Chen Mo and Chen Mo said in unison.

"Okay, you two should find a place to have a good rest." Zhou Dong smiled and waved his hand, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

"I'm going to see my adoptive father." Chen Mo looked at Mo Hu and said.

Since I have returned safely this time, it is natural for me to visit my adoptive father and tell him that I am safe.

In addition, I still have a lot of things on hand, and I have to go to Xiaqi Valley before I can get rid of them.

"That's exactly what I meant." Mo Hu nodded in agreement.

The two immediately confirmed the direction and headed towards Xiaopao Town.

One day later, the two arrived in front of the military camp in Xiaopao Town.

The situation in the military camp was the same as before. His adoptive father did not participate in the sealing of the drought demon. The main reason was that there were no prisoners in Xingyuan Mansion to escort him.

There is no martial law in the military camp now. When the soldiers responsible for guarding the camp saw it was them, they naturally let them into the camp.

The two of them walked into the camp, first went to see their adoptive father and told him the general story of the matter.

Sun Shouren asked them to wait for the reward in peace, and ordered someone to prepare a banquet. The three of them drank until they were very drunk before the banquet was over.

The next day, Chen Mo left the military camp with the harvest and went straight to Xiaqi Mountain.
