Martial Cultivator

Before putting the black shirt back on, Chen Chao circulated the white mist in his body to stop the bleeding injury, then took out the black shirt and put it on.

Then he turned around with a pale face, glanced at Liang Jinjin, and smiled, "Let's go?"

Liang Jinjin looked at Chen Chao worriedly and asked, "Are you okay?"

"How is it possible that everything is fine?" Chen Chao said without hesitation, "Didn't you see so much blood?"

Liang Jinjin looked apologetic and said softly, "You saved me again. If you didn't care about me, you wouldn't be like this."

Chen Chao looked indifferent, "I don't care about you, you will turn into a puddle of flesh now. Will I help you collect the body by then? But even if I help you collect the body, I may not be able to find you." The corpse is even more troublesome."

"You have also seen that I have injuries all over my body. I am used to it. But speaking of your apology, I almost lost my life twice. Shouldn't you repay me?"

Chen Chao glanced at Liang Jinjin with a smile, took out a few pills at random, threw them into his mouth, and started chewing.

Liang Jinjin nodded thoughtfully, "It was a life-saving grace both times. I should repay you no matter what."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "Then..."

Liang Jinjin looked at Chen Chao with an innocent face. For some reason, Chen Chao even saw a hint of shyness on her face.

"Then teach me the Qi-gazing technique!"

Chen Chao changed the subject, but still couldn't forget the so-called Qi-gazing technique.

"No! Everything else is fine, but not this!"

There is no doubt that this time Liang Jinjin refused very simply.

Chen Chao was speechless.

This girl is quite principled.

Sighing, Chen Chao pulled out the cloud mud, put it back into its sheath, and then looked at the top of the mountain. After experiencing an avalanche, there was not much snow on the top of the mountain. However, as the wind and snow continued, it was obvious that it would not be long before there would be another snowfall. Pile up.

"There should be what we want on the top of the mountain now."

Chen Chao turned around and walked forward, but with every step he took, he grinned.

Although the wound on my back has scabbed over, it really hurts right now.

Liang Jinjin stood there stunned for a while, then realized what he was doing and followed him.

An avalanche caused a mountain road that Chen Chao had finally dug out to be buried in snow again. Chen Chao could only reopen the mountain road, but this time he was familiar with it. This time he was able to do it easily and did not spend much time. After a long time, a mountain road was opened up.

The two returned to the top of the mountain.

Only then did I see a big hole in the center of the top of the mountain.

The two of them walked to the entrance of the cave. Before Chen Chao looked down, Liang Jinjin said in surprise, "This is right here, I can see that energy!"

Chen Chao said, "It's an afterthought."

Liang Jinjin ignored him and just looked down. This cave entrance was obviously where the mountain gate of the small mountain sect was located. However, other sects usually built on the mountains and built their buildings in the mountains. This small mountain sect On the contrary, the mountain gate is at the top of the mountain, and the entire sect is hidden in this snow-capped mountain.

Maybe there is another cave.

At this moment, only a path down the mountain can be seen in this large cave.

Chen Chao muttered, "Maybe it's not just hollowing out the entire snow mountain, but maybe even deeper underground."

There was no point in talking, Chen Chao quickly walked in first, with Liang Jinjin following behind him.

As the two went down, the paths that had not seen the light of day for hundreds of years were still as they were before, and there were some blackened things on the stone slabs of almost the same size. Liang Jinjin didn't know what they were, but Chen Chao Then he saw it at a glance and said softly, "It's blood."

Whether it’s the blood of the demon race or the blood of the human race

If the blood lasts too long, it will eventually turn black.

But Chen Chao quickly said, "It's the blood of the demon race and the blood of the human race."

This seems like a nonsense sentence, but it contains many things and is very meaningful.

Liang Jinjin thought of something and became a little silent.

The two continued to walk along the path. From time to time, some murals would appear on the stone walls here, but Chen Chao didn't understand what they were painted on.

Liang Jinjin stopped at a place, touched the mural above with his hand, and said softly, "It's mountains and rivers, it's white clouds and loess, in general, it's heaven and earth."

What Qi Practitioners respect is heaven and earth, and in their faith, there is only heaven and earth.

Chen Chao frowned and said nothing.

But after walking a few steps, they saw two corpses on the path, which should be said to be white bones. One of the skulls could easily be seen to be human, but the other skull was not necessarily so because it was too big and had a different shape. different.

It’s still what Chen Chao said before, it’s about the human race and the demon race.

Chen Chao was silent. A picture seemed to appear in his mind. It was a desperate battle between the human Qi Refiner and the demon monk. In the end, both of them died together, and they both died here.

As you continue down, there will be more and more bones.

I don't know how long it took before they came to the ground.

It should be at the foot of the mountain outside.

There are bones everywhere.

The so-called white bones are probably nothing more than that.

It is easy to see that this is a square. Perhaps many years ago, when those Qi Refiners were still alive, their respective masters would come here to give lectures from time to time.

It should be a prosperous scene.

But now everything has returned to dust, and dust has returned to dust.

There is only one way out of the square, which is a stone staircase going down.

This is a stone staircase excavated by manpower. It seems that further underground is the sect hall and other buildings of this small mountain sect.

There are many luminous pearls inlaid on the stone walls on both sides of the stone staircase, making the stone staircase as clear as day.

The demon tribe should have no interest in these night-light pearls, otherwise they wouldn't have kept them until now.

When the two of them stood at the entrance, they could naturally see the black blood stains on the stone walls and the bones on the stone stairs.

There were traces of the dead everywhere.

Chen Chao felt a little heavy.

He had heard Liang Jinjin say that these cultivating sects were destroyed to resist the demon clan. Although he had some feelings, it was far less direct than seeing it with his own eyes like this.

Liang Jinjin didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't move forward, he just stood there.

Both men were thoughtful.

I don't know how long it took, but Chen Chao woke up and said softly, "It is admirable to die for the human race."

Liang Jinjin said softly, "I'm a little ashamed."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "There is nothing to be ashamed of. Women should die after men."

Then he took a deep breath and led Liang Jinjin down the stone staircase.

It was another silent journey.

The two of them walked for who knows how long. Chen Chao silently calculated the distance and found that it was probably a hundred feet underground.

In other words, they are already at a depth of about a hundred feet underground in the Mobei Plain.

he

We walked for a long time, and because we walked very slowly, it took a long time to reach the end.

Then I saw a large square and a hall in front of the square.

There are roads leading to everywhere around the square, and there are dilapidated buildings everywhere, including the main hall.

It can be seen that the dark wooden pillars were partially burned by the fire, but they were not burned through, so they can still support the hall after hundreds of years.

As for other surrounding buildings, most of them have collapsed, and many places are in ruins.

But what really stopped them in their tracks was the view on the square.

Maybe that shouldn't be called a landscape.

But it is a very tragic scene.

In front of the square, there is a hill of bones. I don’t know how many people died here to form such a hill of bones.

Among these bones, there should be no demon bones, only human bones.

Chen Chao could even imagine how those monsters killed all the monks in this small mountain sect and then dragged their bodies here to build a Jingguan!

Chen Chao could even imagine how the demon monks who were so victorious at that time laughed so wildly in front of this capital!

He remained silent, just lowered his head and tried to calm down his mood.

He had never joined the army in the North to kill demons, nor had he experienced such a bloody battlefield, but he had thought about many scenes, but the scenes he imagined were far inferior to what he saw with his own eyes at this moment.

This is something different after all.

This is just a small mountain sect. If you go to a larger sect, what you see will probably be even more shocking and angry.

The war between the human race and the demon race has been going on for many, many years. The matter of demons eating humans seems to be nothing new.

But this has been the case since ancient times, right?

This has been the case since ancient times, shouldn't it change?

…

…

I don’t know how long it took, but Liang Jinjin asked, “Should we find a place to bury them?”

Chen Chao thought for a while, then shook his head, "Perhaps I don't know when someone will come here, and when they see these things, they may have some ideas, but if one day the human race and the demon race don't If there is a war, I will come here again and let them rest in peace.”

After saying this, Chen Chao looked at Liang Jinjin and asked, "Can you find what you are looking for?"

Liang Jinjin frowned and said softly, "I can only try it, but it should be possible, if it is not taken away by the demon clan."

Chen Chao nodded and asked, "I'll go take a look in the main hall. Are you going to look elsewhere?"

The long-lost secret technique would obviously not be placed in such a conspicuous place in the main hall, so Chen Chao said that he would go and have a look in the main hall to express that he had no intention of taking that thing.

Liang Jinjin didn't think much and just nodded.

Then she walked to one side.

Chen Chao crossed the Beijing Palace and came to the front of the main hall.

The main hall has long lost its former glory, and now it looks even more dilapidated. The door of the main hall is even more open. Chen Chao walked in. As he expected, he saw no corpses at all. The buildings in this main hall were almost It was completely destroyed. On an empty platform at the front, there should have been countless spiritual tablets of the seniors of the Xiaoshan Sect, but at this moment, those spiritual tablets were all on the ground and in dilapidated condition.

It should have been crushed by someone's foot.

A sect was destroyed, the spiritual thrones of ancestors were destroyed, and the inheritance was cut off...

List

Chao couldn't help but think that if one day, the demon clan's army breaks through the Great Wall of the North, marches all the way south, and breaks through the divine capital, the most important place in the imperial city, the ancestral hall dedicated to the past emperors, will it be like this?

Among the tablets on the ground are his grandfather, his great-grandfather, and his ancestors.

Maybe he will have his own uncle too.

But will he have his own father?

There will be a memorial tablet for his father. After all, when his elder brother ascended the throne, he posthumously named his father, who had been just the Crown Prince his whole life, as the late emperor. Naturally, the tablet will be in the ancestral hall. Even when Emperor Liang finally entered the capital, he did not mention that his father would be the first emperor. The emperor was deprived of his position. In fact, many people in the government and the public at that time suggested this.

If the former crown prince is not deprived of his title of emperor, it will become even more obvious that His Majesty the Emperor's position is unfair. What will the government and the public think, what will the world think, and what will the people of future generations think?

What's more, it is a fact that the former prince did not ascend the throne.

Perhaps out of brotherly love, or perhaps out of indifference, His Majesty the Emperor did not do anything.

Chen Chao came back to his senses and laughed at himself. If one day, the ancestral temple was overthrown and the country was reversed, it would actually be a trivial matter. Countless people suffered as a result, and whether the entire human race would even be destroyed as a result is something worthy of concern.

Even if the human race is still there and is not destroyed, it probably cannot escape the fate of being enslaved.

At that time, the monks may all be slaughtered, and ordinary people, even if they are alive, will become the blood food of the demon clan from time to time.

Those were the real dark ages.

Chen Chao withdrew his gaze, looked around the hall a few times, and frowned.

Not long after, Liang Jinjin walked in from the door of the hall, glanced at Chen Chao, and shook his head, "I didn't find it."

Chen Chao asked curiously, "Have you searched for them all?"

Liang Jinjin nodded and said with some regret, "It should be no fate, but I found something else, so I can do business when I go back."

Chen Chao nodded, "Let's go then. I'll take you out of Mobei, and then you can get down to business."

Liang Jinjin looked at the tattered futon and said, "I'm going to kowtow."

Chen Chao was a little surprised, "Don't you Qi Refiners only respect heaven and earth?"

Liang Jinjin said, "It's admiration."

Chen Chao said oh and stopped talking.

Liang Jinjin walked over and quickly knelt down on the futon. Then the woman also sincerely knocked her head to the ground.

Loud noise.

But Chen Chao quickly raised his eyebrows.

It wasn't that he had any thoughts about Liang Jinjin's honest behavior, but Chen Chao felt something was wrong when he heard the sound.

That was obviously empty.

Chen Chao walked over, while Liang Jinjin raised his head in a daze, not knowing why.

Chen Chao pulled out the long knife from his waist, inserted the tip of the knife into the gap between the stone bricks, and then tilted it hard. The stone bricks became loose, and Chen Chao reached out and picked it up.

There is a wooden box inside.

Next to the wooden box is a booklet.

Who would have thought that such an important thing would end up here.

It probably corresponds to the saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place.

Liang Jinjin's eyes lit up and he said happily, "It's it!"

Chen Chao ignored her and just looked at the wooden box, wondering what was in the wooden box.

"open to take a look?"

Chen Chao glanced at Liang Jinjin.

Liang Jinjin said hello, picked up the wooden box, and was about to open it.
