Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 368 Passersby Work Hard to Live (36)
Without the last two obstacles, the Liu family rest team rushed all the way to Luojing.
Luojing is no longer as prosperous as before, but the special significance of this city still makes the Liu family, who are leading a large number of troops to the border, feel deeply moved.
Liu Xiuwen's eyes were filled with tears. He lowered his head, grabbed a handful of soil from the city gate, and carefully sniffed the rural flavor hidden in the soil.
"grandfather"
Liu Jingsheng came up to Liu Xiuwen, glanced at the dilapidated city gate, and suggested that they could set up camp here and wait for the army to rest. Then they could take down the city that had experienced countless hardships in one fell swoop.
"Well, rest."
There was no need to rush. The army was marching so fast that many people could not bear it.
Liu Xiuwen seemed to have a feeling of homesickness. This place was not like Yingchuan. Although the Liu family started in Yingchuan, Luojing was the place where Liu Xiuwen was born, grew up and grew old.
Liu Jingsheng ignored Liu Xiuwen's rich emotions. He turned around and gave instructions to his subordinates who followed him, ordering the soldiers to rest on the spot.
Liu Mingxuan's four brothers and sisters were all wearing armor and riding horses.
Liu Mingjin is still young, and his tender face is totally mismatched with his muscular body.
He moved his wrist, jumped off the horse, unscrewed the water bag and started drinking water.
Liu Mingxuan took off his heavy helmet, revealing his sweat-soaked hair.
"Big Brother"
Liu Mingfei handed over the handkerchief, glanced around, and waved to call Liu Mingchen.
"Once we get into the city, we can have a good rest. We are really exhausted during this period."
Liu Mingfei complained quietly about the hardships of the march, but it was absolutely impossible for her to give up the army and return to her family.
"I don't know what the situation is in the city, but just look at the scene at the city gate," Liu Mingjin shook his head, not holding any hope for the situation in the city.
Liu Mingxuan put away the used handkerchief and put the helmet back on his head. "Luojing has been in chaos for many years, and there are many weird and demonic creatures in it." To be able to survive in such a harsh environment, even the human race is not purely kind.
"I feel it, the air inside is very thick," so thick that it was dark and thick. Liu Mingchen became more and more weird, and his methods became more and more strange.
Liu Mingfei's beautiful eyes widened slightly, "Second brother, can you please speak properly? Be careful or I will tell mother about this."
Liu Mingchen was fearless, and his slight smile really made him look like the reincarnated Buddha.
Liu Mingfei: ...
Liu Mingfei felt even more headache. If she didn't come out, she would really have to watch her second son become a monk.
Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingjin also looked at their second brother who was becoming more and more prominent, and prayed in their hearts that he should not think too much. What was good about being a monk? He could not eat or drink and had many restrictions. If their Liu family took a step forward, the road to becoming a king would be waiting for them.
"Okay, don't worry about me. I won't do anything to make mother sad."
Liu Mingchen lowered his head and eyes to hide the surging emotions in his eyes.
Naturally, he would not become a monk. Buddhism had been mostly destroyed in disasters long ago. Liu Mingchen was the reincarnation of a Buddha and could better understand the true meaning of Buddhism.
The city before us was once a prosperous capital. After its destruction, too many lives died. Their bodies disappeared but their souls remained immortal, clinging to the city and forming a gloomy resentment. Now, the huge resentment is rising into the sky and will not dissipate for a long time.
"Great-grandfather, let me go in and try," Liu Mingchen came behind Liu Xiuwen, and stood behind him, looking at Luo Jing not far away.
"Chen'er, it's very dangerous inside." Just standing outside was creepy enough.
Liu Xiuwen considered himself a worldly-wise man, but the scene before him still made him hesitate.
I dare not walk, dare not look, and even dare not enter.
The scene Liu Mingchen saw was even more serious than what Liu Xiuwen described.
"Great-grandfather, if I don't go in, they will absorb the evil energy and become stronger." If this continues, they can only abandon the city and leave hidden dangers.
Why was the Wei State destroyed? Wasn't it because it came to power illegitimately and was backfired upon. If the Liu family follows the same path, they will become the new Wei State within a hundred years.
Liu Xiuwen sighed, his body slightly hunched, his shoulders slumped down, "Chen'er, are you sure?"
Liu Mingchen shook his head and said, "Try your best." He was not sure if he could win, but if he dragged it out, he would definitely fail.
Liu Xiuwen said in a deep voice, "It's up to you. Great-grandfather is old," and his physical strength has declined. He no longer has the drive and bloodiness he had before. He knows in his heart that there are some decisions he can't make.
Liu Mingchen was not polite to Liu Xiuwen, or rather, they both knew very well that the most dangerous thing about Luojing was the thick layer of resentment that was about to condense into substance. If the resentment was not dissipated, people would not be able to live there for long.
Turning back to the tent, Liu Mingchen told Liu Jingsheng, Liu Mingxuan and others that he had entered Luojing early.
As expected, Liu Mingchen encountered obstruction and persuasion from everyone.
"I have already explained to my great-grandfather that we cannot stay here for long without entering Luojing."
"But we can't let you go in alone," Liu Mingxuan was so angry that he almost died. He was looking for death. He was really not afraid of his mother knowing.
"Brother, how about I go with you?" Liu Mingjin tried to think about it, but as soon as he made the suggestion, Liu Mingfei retorted, "Don't even think about it. My brother and I are still here, so it's none of your business."
Liu Mingjin: ...
Liu Mingjin curled his lips when he heard that, but since he was the youngest here and had no say, he simply kept quiet.
Liu Jingsheng advised Liu Mingchen to think more about himself, "You can't think that everything will be fine just because you are strong." Even he couldn't figure out the situation in Luojing, so he could only choose to stay outside with the army temporarily.
"Uncle, I know what I am doing. I just want to go in and see what it's like. If I'm not strong enough, I'll get out immediately." Therefore, he will not die, and there is no living creature in this world that can take his life.
Liu Mingchen didn't know where his self-confidence came from, but since he was old enough to understand, he knew clearly that he would not die easily before fulfilling the responsibilities he carried.
Perhaps this is the will of heaven? Liu Mingchen didn't understand, but it didn't stop him from using these to find loopholes for himself. Every time he fought to the death, exchanged injuries for injuries, and practiced madly, it was all for the day when he could truly be his own master.
Liu Jingsheng looked at Liu Mingchen for a long time without saying anything. What was he talking about? It seemed that no matter what he said, he would feel uncomfortable talking while standing.
Liu Jingsheng was unable to accompany Liu Mingchen into the city, and Liu Xiuwen had to stay behind to support the team. Liu Mingxuan, Liu Mingfei, and even Liu Mingjin were all main forces and could not leave.
In the end, just as Liu Mingchen said, he was the only one who walked into the city with his luggage in the cover of night.
Liu Mingxuan had a complicated expression, Liu Mingjin was worried that something had happened to his second brother, and Liu Mingfei was writing a letter with a furious face. The three of them had their own thoughts, but they sincerely hoped that Liu Mingchen could come back safely.
"Why doesn't the Heavenly Consciousness take action? That's the savior it's been dreaming of."
Shen Yao was wearing a thin nightgown and lying on the bed without sleeping.
In front of him was a small screen showing Liu Mingchen's experience in Luojing. It was truly a life-and-death crisis, and he could lose his life if he was not careful.
The system hid aside and watched, taking the time to deal with Shen Yao.
"The Heavenly Dao consciousness is watching, and says it's not time for it to take action yet."
As the Liu family cleared out most of the territory, Tiandao's consciousness remained awake for longer and longer periods of time.
The system has been able to establish contact with the Heavenly Dao Consciousness. Although it may lose connection occasionally, overall this is a good phenomenon.
With the intervention of the Heavenly Dao Consciousness, the energy of this world has become stable.
The most obvious thing is that the strange things that cause trouble are gradually decreasing. Although some are eliminated by the human race or the demon race, some are secretly solved by the consciousness of the heaven.
Liu Mingchen is now fighting for his life in Luojing because of Luojing's special geographical location. The resentment generated by it combined with the weirdness of life here has given birth to an even larger and more terrifying monster.
Liu Mingchen was helpless in dealing with the monster because it was very cunning and was hiding in a place where there were a few humans living there.
Liu Mingchen cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately, as this goes against the principles of his practice. He can only slowly fight with the monster and then fall into a passive position.
Shen Yao felt a little angry when she saw her son being beaten.
She placed a life-saving talisman on Liu Mingchen, but Liu Mingchen could still cope with it at present and failed to activate it. However, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for too long. Compared with this monster, Liu Mingchen seemed immature.
"Just keep an eye on it, and take action as soon as the talisman is activated," Shen Yao stretched out his hand and yawned, then turned off the screen, turned his back to the bed and fell asleep.
Shen Yao was lacking in energy and couldn't stay up all night. Besides, there was a Heavenly Consciousness watching over Liu Mingchen, so she, as his mother, felt relieved.
…………
Liu Mingchen had been in Luojing for several days, but no news came.
During this period, Liu Jingsheng and Liu Xiuwen also organized several offensive opportunities, but the results were not very good. In the end, they could only choose to give up temporarily and retreat outside the city to defend.
However, during this period of time, many people or monsters living in Luojing City ran out.
People are collected and managed centrally, while monsters are dealt with directly without leaving any room for them.
As for how this group of people will be arranged in the future? Liu Jingsheng has not thought about it so much, but just uses them to find out about Luojing's situation and provide convenience for them.
"Great-grandfather, we want to go in and take a look," Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei ran to find Liu Xiuwen.
Liu Mingchen didn't make any movement for a while, and they were really worried.
"No, Luojing City is dangerous. People who escaped said that there are weird things going on inside," Liu Xiuwen frowned. Nothing Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei said could make him agree.
There was no other way, the two could only take a roundabout approach and go find Liu Jingsheng.
Liu Jingsheng: ...
Liu Jingsheng looked at the group of children who were cheating their uncle and shook his head helplessly.
"I agree that it doesn't work. Your great-grandfather guards the city gate every day." How can you go around the city? How can Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei have such ability?
Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei: ...
"Uncle, Mingchen..." Liu Mingxuan was at a loss and really didn't know what to do.
Liu Jingsheng has a better mentality than them. Besides, none of the people who left the city mentioned having seen Liu Mingchen, which is a good thing.
"Just wait for a few days. Among the four of you, Mingchen is the strongest." If something happens to Liu Mingchen, it would be useless for Liu Mingfei and Liu Mingxuan to go in.
Liu Jingsheng was right. If Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei went in now, it was hard to say whether they were delivering food or saving people.
The brother and sister looked at each other and returned to the tent dejectedly.
Liu Mingjin was lying on the bed taking a rest. When he saw his brother and sister raising their eyebrows and making eye contact, the little radar in his head suddenly went mysterious and he ran over to ask them questions.
Liu Mingfei didn't want to pay attention to him. Liu Mingxuan was about to say something when there was a sudden loud noise outside, which directly shocked the three of them.
The next second, the three of them stood up and ran out, looking up in the direction where the sound came from.
It’s Luojing City!
The rolling black smoke filled the air, engulfing the exposed city ahead.
Liu Xiuwen stood at the front and tensed his body, a sharp cry that sounded like a laugh but not a cry rang in his ears.
"Retreat! Back away!"
After shouting to the person behind him, Liu Xiuwen jumped into the air, with his hands behind his back and his eyes staring forward.
Behind him, Liu Jingsheng asked his men to step back, then he soared into the air and looked into the distance.
There seemed to be nothing for them to see except the thick black smoke.
Liu Mingxuan and Liu Mingfei also tried, but unfortunately they all failed.
When night fell, the whole of Luojing was shrouded in black smoke. The flowing black smoke seemed like a living thing, making people feel sick.
"What is this thing? A monster?" Liu Mingfei whispered to Liu Mingxuan, thinking that she had killed many monsters along the way, but had never seen this, and there was no real object.
Liu Mingxuan frowned tightly, he really didn't know, "What did my great-grandfather and uncle say?"
Liu Mingjin interrupted, "Great-grandfather has not stepped down, and uncle is still busy pacifying the entire team." The two sides did not exchange opinions.
What exactly is that black smoke that spreads so quickly? It is somewhat similar to the black fog from earlier, but the two are different species. Who knows what kind of monster has been bred in Luojing City?
"Let's go over and help and wait and see," if it doesn't work, we'll have to wait and see.
Fortunately, Luojing was not taken, but they still have other places in their hands.
When the time comes, unified arrangements will be made, and it will only be a matter of selecting a new capital, which won’t be a big problem.
The trio ran to help, and Liu Jingsheng was not polite. He assigned the work in his hands, then stood up and ran to Liu Xiuwen to ask about the situation.
Liu Xiuwen had a strange expression on his face. He glanced at Liu Jingsheng, then at the black smoke that was about to overflow but was stuck at the city gate. "Mingchen is coming out soon."
Liu Jingsheng: ...Hmm?
Liu Xiuwen was not wrong. When the black smoke spread throughout the entire Luojing City, he sensed the presence of Liu Mingchen.
The person is fine and is in good spirits, but he is unable to come out for the time being.
Liu Xiuwen looked up from the sky for a long while, and only after he was sure that Liu Mingchen was not in danger did he feel relieved and carefully observed the black smoke outside.
There must be something in the black smoke that is trapped and unable to get out. Liu Mingchen is dealing with the things in the black smoke and the progress is going smoothly. That's why Liu Xiuwen said that Liu Mingchen will be out soon.
Liu Jingsheng does not have the strength of Liu Xiuwen and cannot feel Liu Mingchen's aura.
But his grandfather would not lie to him. Since he said so, it proved that his nephew was safe.
Very good, very good. My younger brother and sister-in-law are not here. Liu Jingsheng consciously takes on the responsibility of an uncle. Nothing must happen to the four children.
"Grandfather, shall we go back first?"
"Let's go back."
Liu Xiuwen and Liu Jingsheng walked back, but before they had taken two steps, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck the top of Luojing City.
