It seems that there are not many people here, and there are not even many beggars on the street.
"Xihuang City is close to the edge of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is also bordered by the Wasteland of Death. Since the Great Zhou Dynasty collapsed, no merchants have come in. The people here are running to death, and the guards have no salary from the court, so naturally they are gone. people.
And the city wall has not been repaired and has been attacked by wild animals for a long time, so it has become like this. "
After hearing that, Liu Qi quickly replied, looking at Yuan Yi after speaking, expecting Yuan Yi to fulfill his promise.
"Then what's the situation in West Desolate City now?"
But Yuan Yi didn't give it to him, but asked another question.
"There are not many people in this city, and most of them are just dawdling. Now that there are many wars in this big week, they can't go anywhere. Most of the people in the city are just women and children.
Only the hundreds of guards left behind guard here, and they all settled here and have nowhere to go. They just live here, but this place has not been affected by the chaos of the Great Zhou War, which is the only good thing. "
Hearing his words, Yuan Yi had a basic understanding of this place.
"Give!"
Yuan Yi threw him a few pieces of broken silver, which were like stones to him, worthless.
"Sir, you are magnificent!"
He said happily that even in today's troubled times and prices soaring, these silver taels are enough for him to go to the nearest city that sells grain to buy a lot of grain, but he has a family to support.
"Young master, are you going to the wasteland of death? I advise you not to go. Many people have passed by our West Deserted City over the years. They all explore the wasteland of death, but in the end no one came back. The wasteland of death That's where life is devoured."
At this time, Liu Qi said to Yuan Yi that although he did not know each other before, the other party gave him so much silver taels, which could relieve him a lot of burden.
"It's okay!"
Yuan Yi waved his hand and said.
Seeing Yuan Yi's appearance, he didn't try to dissuade him, he knew it would be useless to persuade him any longer.
"Young master, are you going out of the city? I'll go with you, otherwise I'll pass from the other side later, those brothers are afraid that they will make things difficult for you, so I will go over and talk about it, so as not to trouble you."
At this time Liu Qi said.
He has a kind personality, but the people on the other side may not be so. If they see Yuan Yi dressed up like this, they might want to blackmail him.
If there is a conflict at that time, I'm afraid it will be bad for both sides.
He traveled all over the world before and knew that there are many monks in this world who practice qi and cultivate immortals. Although this young man looks ordinary, he can be said to be a monk, no matter how bad he is, he has a little kung fu.
I'm afraid that it will be his old brothers who will suffer at that time. They have had feelings for these years, so naturally he can't see anything wrong.
That's why he said this to Yuan Yi.
Chapter 133 All Beings Are Suffering
"Then you guard the city?"
Yuan Yi looked at him and asked.
He is also willing to have someone as a free tour guide, and he can also inquire more about this dead wasteland.
After all, these people have lived here for a long time, so they may know some secrets and legends.
"It doesn't matter, no one comes to this place anyway. You are the first person to come here in the past year. Since the Great Zhou War, no one has visited this place, and there are very few people who come here. .”
Liu Qi said.
He followed Yuan Yi into the city, not even caring about guarding the city gate here.
It seems that he really doesn't care if anyone comes or not, or in other words, he doesn't think that anyone will come here. It's an accident to come to Yuanyi for such a long time.
The two communicated while walking, and Yuan Yi also knew his name, and he also found out more information about the Wasteland of Death from Liu Qi.
First of all, it can be seen from its name that the Wasteland of Death is full of ominous meaning. Since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Wasteland of Death has existed.
As for how long it has existed, no one knows, and there is very little information about the historical death wasteland.
Although many people have come here to explore in the past, they have never come out again, so they know very little about the Wasteland of Death.
And people who often enter here to explore have never come out. After a long time, they think that there is ominous in the wasteland of death, so the people who are very close to this place will not go close to it.
In the wasteland of death, apart from the faint black air wafting out, there is no other place that affects the surrounding people. Naturally, after a long time, no one cares, and does not take the initiative to explore the wasteland of death.
"Then is there anything weird in this wasteland of death?"
Yuan Yi asked.
"What's weird?"
Liu Qishen thought for a while, his brows were furrowed, thinking about it in his mind.
"By the way, I often hear people close to that generation say that every autumn and winter in this wasteland of death, there will be bursts of roars at night.
It's a bit like a wolf's roar, and it's a bit like other wild beasts, but no one dares to investigate, and they all think it's some kind of beast that broke in. "
At this moment Liu Qi patted his head and said.
"The roar of the beast?"
After hearing this, Yuan Yi pondered.
However, there is too little news about this. Although the people here live near the Death Wasteland, they have never gone deep into it, and according to his words, none of the people who went in have ever returned.
There are no historical materials and classic records in history, which makes him a little helpless.
It seems that he can only investigate it himself. The problem of Dazhou's real estate in the future is still very serious. He can't always buy grain from the outside world, or let him transport grain from other worlds. This is not worth the loss.
"Young Master, please do me a favor! Give me something to eat! Please do me a favor!"
Yuan Yi and Liu Qi walked towards the city from the avenue that came in from the city gate. At this time, an old woman covered in ragged clothes and starving and skinny came up from the street and knelt in front of Yuan Yi.
Yuan Yi saw that some houses inside the city had collapsed, and some were about to collapse, but after repairs, they looked better, but they were still trembling, as if a gust of wind would blow them down.
"Aunt Li, you and I are old acquaintances, no matter how bad you are, you can still be a female worker, why bother begging here all day, you still have a grandson to support, your son's family passed away unfortunately, this child has no parents , but it depends on you in the future.
You can't beg for food all the time, you have never begged for food in any of our Xihuang City's families, you said it's okay once or twice, but after a long time, no one cares about you You never have a meal, don't you? "
When Liu Qi saw the old woman, he also had a look of helplessness, and he just said it out of nowhere.
"Nephew Qi, there's nothing I can do about it. What can I do with my old eyesight and weak hands and feet? If you say I'm dead, I'll die, but I still have grandchildren to support, without me , he can't survive.
Let him eat hundreds of meals all these years, and my family begs to support him. I know that this has made the folks tired. After all, your life is not easy, but I just don’t want this old face, and I want to drag my grandson until he can stand on his own. Rebirth, otherwise I don't feel relieved to leave. "
Hearing this, Liu Qi was also full of helplessness. Troubled times are killing people, and it is very lucky to be able to survive.
"Oh, it's really hard for you to get old, and I know it's not easy for you, so how about it, I'll find something to do for you later, and you can take these first, so as to make the recent days easier."
Liu Qi said helplessly, then took out a piece of broken silver from his body, and handed it to the old woman.
Yuan Yi could see that this Liu Qi was kind-hearted by nature, and this kind of thing probably happened not once or twice.
"Nephew Qi, how can you ask me to thank you? I know it's not easy for you, but you often help me. It's really hard for you, child!"
It could be seen that the old woman was really desperate, otherwise she wouldn't be like this, and Liu Qi had no choice, and he had no choice before, so he had to help her occasionally.
Like what he said before, I'm afraid he didn't know how many times he said it.
"Hey, you should go back first, don't let Xiaoqi starve, I still have something to do, so I'll go first!"
Liu Qi said.
"thanks, thanks!"
Both Yuan Yi and Liu Qi walked away, but the old woman kept saying thank you.
"I can't see that you are quite kind."
Yuan Yi said.
"Young Master, you are joking. There is nothing you can do about it in this world. It is not easy to fill your stomach. Aunt Li was my neighbor when I was young, and she treated me very well, but now the three sons and daughter-in-law of the family have died unexpectedly. Now she is alone with a grandson."
Liu Qi said with a wry smile.
"Besides, there are not many people left in Xihuang City now. They are all old acquaintances. If you can help, you can help. This time, there is also a reason for the young master. If I want to thank you, I have to thank you, young master."
Yuan Yi smiled when he heard it, he knew it should be the reason why he gave the other party the money.
Based on the prices of various items he saw along the way, those silver taels are a lot of wealth for an ordinary person, at least enough for a family of four to live in peace and stability for a year.
"This chaotic world should not last long. When the order of the world is restored, we will be able to live a good life!"
Yuan Yi looked at the buildings in the distance, and said with a different meaning in his words.
"Who knows? I just hope it will end soon. If we fight like this, we won't have a living environment at all!"
Liu Qi shook his head and said, he didn't believe Yuan Yi's words in his heart.
Now wars are raging everywhere, and the collapse of one dynasty will inevitably be accompanied by the rise of another power, but this war may take a long time.
It could be years, it could be decades, who knows?
I fell asleep again today, there is another chapter, I have to wait until night, sorry.
Chapter 134 Strange Mutation
Yuan Yi and Liu Qi continued to rush towards the other side.
Although Xihuang City has been run down, it was once regarded as a big city on the border.
Naturally, the journey from one side to the other is still very long.
The two walked for nearly an hour before the outlines of the city walls and gates emerged in the distance.
"Young Master, go out from here, and you will reach the outside of the Death Wasteland after a hundred miles. This trip is dangerous, and I hope you will be more careful!"
Liu Qi said to Yuan Yi.
"Trouble you to lead the way, I will visit again when I have a chance when I return!"
Yuan Yi said to him.
From his point of view, Liu Qi is also a person with ambition. Although he is a bit old, it doesn't matter. If he is placed in other places, he may not be unable to make a career.
But everything will wait for him to come back from the wasteland of death, let's settle the purpose of this trip first.
Yesterday, Linglong Pavilion Yu Ying had sent him a letter, asking him to go to Linglong Pavilion to discuss Linglong Pavilion as a subsidiary sect of Zhitianzong.
So now he has to quickly settle the matter of the Wasteland of Death, and then rush back to Dachu.
"Then I wish the young master a triumphant return. When the young master returns, I, Liu Qi, will clean up the dust for you."
Although he didn't think Yuan Yi could come back from the wasteland of death, the money Yuan Yi gave him just now was a great favor, so naturally he also hoped that Yuan Yi would get well.
He is not very greedy for money, but the silver Yuan Yi gave him can relieve his pressure and increase the chances of their family surviving in this troubled world.
This is a great favor to their family, although he also answered Yuan Yi's question.
But he knew that it was nothing at all, anyone in Xihuang City who he told Yuan Yi could tell Yuan Yi.
"Old Liu, Lao Liu, I finally found you. Why are you here? Go back and have a look. Your girl suddenly went crazy for some reason. She saw people biting her. Now she is unconscious. Ask Mr. Wu to watch it too. If you don't know what kind of symptoms it is, go back and have a look!"
Just when Yuan Yi was about to leave, a voice suddenly came, interrupting Yuan Yi's turning around.
"What? What are you talking about? My girl is fine. When I came out in the morning, she was still alive and kicking."
He obviously didn't believe it. When he came out in the morning, his girl was still holding his leg to prevent him from leaving.
"Oh, why did I lie to you? You and I have been friends for many years. I went to the city gate to look for you just now. I saw that you were nowhere to be seen, so I hurriedly asked. Someone said that you came here.
There are many people in your house now, and your girl doesn't know why her strength has become so strong that even a few big guys can't control it!Go back and have a look! "
He also felt very helpless when he heard Liu Qi's words, but he still explained patiently, his words and expressions did not seem to be joking.
Seeing this, Liu Qi's expression changed drastically, and he believed his words.
"Young master, you see something happened in my family, so I won't see you off, young master. I hope your trip will be smooth and you will return in triumph!"
After he finished speaking, he saluted Yuan Yi with his hands clasped together, then turned around and hurried towards his home.
"What is this called! Alas!"
The man sighed, it was difficult to survive, and now this kind of thing happened again.
"Old man, may I ask what happened?"
