Star Railroad: The Road to Dominion

"Dad...Dad, I..."

The little girl was the first among the four to wake up. She looked at Wu Yao blankly. She had seen a lot of killings during her escape. But none of them were like Wu Yao. He looked like an old farmer with a sickle in his hand, harvesting wheat, and he could do it in the blink of an eye. Just wipe out a whole group of people?

The little man felt that his head was empty, and he subconsciously looked towards his "omnipotent" father, wanting to get the answer.

"Zhiruo, don't look!"

Zhou Ziwang woke up with a start and hurriedly covered Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, not wanting his daughter to see such a bloody scene.

"This……"

Chang Yuchun also woke up from the shock. He opened his mouth and felt as if something in his body had been shattered. Firearms have been around since the Song Dynasty in China, and have been used in warfare for a long time. He has also seen the power of today's firecrackers and artillery, but comparing the two, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground, there is a world of difference.

Furthermore, the "firearm" in the hands of the man in front of him was too exquisite, and its power was far beyond his knowledge. Could it be something from the immortal family?

At this moment, Chang Yuchun found the most reasonable explanation for himself.

After retracting his thoughts, he knelt down in front of Wu Yao with a plop, "Thank you so much, hero, for your life-saving grace! Chang Yuchun would like to thank you here."

Bang bang bang, three loud bangs, which made Wu Yao very embarrassed. Is this person planning to send him away directly?

As a young man who was born in the spring breeze and grew up under the red flag, it feels awkward to be kneeled down and kowtow.

Of course, these are not the point.

Wu Yao looked at the person in front of him carefully and frowned, "You said your name is Chang Yuchun?"

"Not bad!"

After Chang Yuchun kowtowed, he raised his head and said blankly: "I wonder if there is any problem, hero?"

"No, no."

In an instant, Wu Yao had an idea. Since this person was Chang Yuchun, the father and daughter next to him were most likely Zhou Zhiruo and her father Zhou Ziwang, one of the heroines of Destiny.

Speaking of this father and daughter, he couldn't help but recall a memory. The novel only said that Zhou Zhiruo's father was a boatman, but in the context of the late Yuan Dynasty, how could a boatman find a man who could give birth to Zhou Zhiruo's level? A beautiful wife?

The key among the key is that Zhou Zhiruo and his daughter appear for the first time in the novel. Another companion is Chang Yuchun, one of the famous founding generals of the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, this person is also a follower of the Ming religion.

In real history, Zhou Ziwang, the leader of the Jiangxi peasant uprising, had a master named Peng Yingyu, nicknamed Monk Peng. He was a native of Yuanzhou, Jiangxi, and was born into a wealthy landlord's family.

So there is only one truth. Zhou Zhiruo said that her father was a boatman. This was probably the argument she and his father had discussed long ago. Ninety-nine percent of the time, Zhou Ziwang's identity as a boatman was false.

Combined with what Zhou Zhiruo will do in the future and her ending, it is not difficult to see that everything was doomed from the beginning.

He is only eight or nine years old, but he already has such a scheming mind. Ordinary families cannot cultivate such outstanding people.

Thinking of this, Wu Yao finally figured out why his martial arts destiny was in a boil just now.

Because he met the destined heroine of this world - Zhou Zhiruo.

But this isn’t right either!

When he met the protagonist Zhang Wuji before, his martial arts career was not in a state of excitement, right?

Is it because he doesn't like Zhang Wuji, or because his martial arts destiny doesn't like men?

"I don't know, what is your surname?"

Chang Yuchun secretly looked at Wu Yao and asked tentatively: "If it is convenient, please inform the villain, so that the villain can work as a cow or a horse to repay your life-saving grace."

At the same time, Zhou Ziwang finally calmed down. When he thought of the mysterious "firearm" in Wu Yao's hand just now, his heart couldn't help but heat up.

If their rebel army can possess dozens, no, only four or five of these terrifying weapons, then why not worry about being unable to overthrow the corrupt rule of the Yuan Dynasty?

Thinking of this, he glanced at Zhou Zhiruo. The eyes of father and daughter met, and Zhou Zhiruo nodded knowingly.

Then, Zhou Ziwang and Zhou Zhiruo also came to Wu Yao and also knelt down on the ground.

No words were said, just three bang bang bang bangs.

After kowtowing, Zhou Ziwang clasped his fists and said: "Zhou Ziwang and his daughter Zhou Zhiruo thanked their benefactor for saving his life. There is no way to repay this kindness. As long as the benefactor opens his mouth, as long as the villain can do it, the villain will never give up and fight with all his strength." Finish."

"As expected, they are Zhou Ziwang, Zhou Zhiruo and his daughter."

Sure enough, Wu Yao thought to himself. He looked Zhou Ziwang up and down. Even though this guy had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a Chinese character face, and an honest look, if you look closely, you will find the glint in his eyes that flickers in and out.

Based on speculation, Zhou Ziwang was most likely a member of the Ming Cult, and at the same time, he was probably a person in power. He immediately guessed Zhou Ziwang's thoughts.

No surprise, this old boy must have taken a liking to the Gatling in his hand.

Wu Yao took a deep look at Zhou Ziwang and said calmly: "As the saying goes, if you are poor, you can help yourself, but if you are rich, you can help the world. Although Wu has no ambition to help the world, there is no problem in helping his compatriots when they are in trouble. So you don’t need to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank us as compatriots!”

"This……"

Zhou Ziwang originally wanted to get close to Wu Yao, to see if he could gradually get acquainted with him, and then wait for an opportunity to test whether he could get the artifact from Wu Yao, but seeing the alienation in Wu Yao's words, I'm afraid his plan will fail.

Chang Yuchun on the side saw Zhou Ziwang's thoughts and shook his head secretly. Zhou Ziwang was too eager this time.

They just took our lives. Instead of sincerely thanking you, you are secretly thinking about plotting the treasure in their hands. This is too unethical.

Seeing that the atmosphere was stagnant, Zhou Zhiruo pursed her lips and said innocently: "Brother, are you an immortal? Can Zhiruo follow you to cultivate immortality?"

"Uh……"

Wu Yao was stunned. If he hadn't known Zhou Zhiruo's nature and future destiny, he would have been deceived by this girl's appearance of an ignorant white sheep.

For a moment, he couldn't help but think of the words in the original work that Zhang Wuji's mother, Yin Susu, told Zhang Wuji before she died: "The more beautiful a woman is, the more she deceives people!" I do not deceive you.

His thoughts were racing, and he originally wanted to reject Zhou Zhiruo, but when he thought that Zhou Zhiruo was the first person to cause a stir in martial arts, he couldn't help but hesitate.

But the hesitation was only for a moment, and he had an idea, smiled and said: "Yes, little girl, I am indeed an immortal, but why should I take you to cultivate immortality with me?"

Zhou Ziwang: "..."

Chang Yuchun: "..."

At this moment, both of them felt that the person in front of them was a bit "naughty". He was a cultivator of immortals, why don't you become the Jade Emperor?

"I……"

Zhou Zhiruo was stunned and couldn't help being asked. She originally just wanted to ease the stagnant atmosphere, but she never expected that Wu Yao would give such an answer.

Wu Yao looked at Zhou Zhiruo's sluggish look and couldn't help but smile even more happily. This is what a child of this age should look like!

After laughing, he coughed and glanced at Zhou Ziwang, "Of course, it's not impossible for you to follow me in cultivating immortality. You have to be prepared to say goodbye forever. You'll never see your father again."

"I...Dad..."

Zhou Ziwang met Zhou Zhiruo's bewildered and begging look, and his thoughts turned quickly. After a moment of consideration, he said decisively: "Zhiruo, this is your opportunity, just follow the immortal with peace of mind!"

"But daddy, I..."

Zhou Zhiruo still wanted to speak, but was rudely interrupted by Zhou Ziwang. At the same time, he secretly made a gesture, "Okay, Zhiruo, you don't have to worry about me. As long as you learn your skills from the immortal, I will feel at ease."

Zhou Zhiruo bit her lip when she received the signal, "Dad, I understand."

"interesting."

Wu Yao looked at the little actions of Zhou Ziwang and Zhou Zhiruo, and the more he watched, the more interesting they became. In addition to innate factors, the shaping of a person's character by the environment is also very important.

If Zhou Zhiruo hadn't received Zhou Ziwang's shrewd education since she was a child, she probably wouldn't have turned into a black man after being emotionally hurt by Zhang Wuji.

But now with him, everything is different.
