Lord of the Tricks

Chapter 18 The choice given by the second old man
Everyone carried Erhei out of the burrow, and when they saw the Li Chang who was staying up all night, the two still maintained that paralyzed look.

The black goat kept switching between frightened stiff limbs and trembling begging for mercy.

The Lichang supported his crutches with both hands, looked at the man and sheep lying on the ground with gloomy eyes, fell silent for a while, and waved to everyone.

"You go out first, Yu Ziqing and Erhan stay behind."

After everyone had gone out, Lao Yang came out from the kiln.

The head of the village and Lao Yang looked at each other, and the head of the village said to Yu Ziqing.

"How to deal with these two guys, have you thought about it?"

"Uh, you can handle it as you say, chief." Yu Ziqing was a little surprised, but he knew it well. In the village, he never delegated such decision-making power to others. He always let the chief make the decision.

A smile appeared on Li Chang's face, and he looked at Lao Yang.

"I'm not wrong, you are wrong this time."

Lao Yang grinned and didn't take it seriously. When he knew about it, he thought that Yu Ziqing would kill the infiltrator on the spot.

In today's environment, it is an advantage to be decisive in killing and attacking when things happen, but he has taught Yu Ziqing many things, some of which are about killing. Too impulsive, but not a good thing.

There are countless means in this world to track down the murderer, it just depends on whether the opposing forces are willing to pay a huge price.

Especially when you don't want to expose yourself, it is a bad idea to attack and kill the opponent as soon as you meet.

Those who dare to do this are not afraid of being known to be the one who did it, such as Mu Zhiqiu of Langya Academy of Martial Arts.

But Yu Ziqing doesn't have such strength and means now, so it's always right to restrain himself.

"This black goat is a monster. It belongs to the seventh floor. It has many shepherds under its command. It is one of the people in charge of eyeliner in the seventh floor.

Generally speaking, the Seventh Floor is a force that steals and sells information everywhere, but in Daqian, Dazhen, and Dali, they are all listed as evil ways, and everyone can punish them.

And this person, according to the tradition of the seventh floor, should be the person who restrains the black goat. Their combination, together with the many shepherds under their command, is a standard eyeliner team.

Every year because of them, there are countless people who are forced to leave their hometowns and trafficked to various places, and those whose families are broken up are countless. As long as they are found in Dagan, they will definitely be hit by a thunderbolt. "

After Lao Yang finished speaking, he looked at Yu Ziqing.

And the chief continued.

"A few decades ago, when the wilderness was not so desolate, people near the mine who could not survive would come to the village, and some who had children who could not afford to raise them would send their children to In the village, if you come here, you will at least have a bite to eat, and you won't starve to death.

But in recent years, the wasteland has become more dilapidated and depressed. There are fewer and fewer people living in the wasteland for a long time, and villages disappear one by one.

Those villages are people who have no ability to move away, nor have the ability to cross the wasteland to earn a living. They can only be trapped in the wasteland, carry it hard, and finally die out completely.

Later, with the help of the shepherd, the village led them across the wilderness and came to the village. On the one hand, they had a chance to survive, and on the other hand, they also supplemented the population of the village. "

When the chief said this, he paused slightly, with a trace of astringency in his tone.

"Didn't you notice that there are no children in the village at all?"

"I found out..." Yu Ziqing nodded. He found out on the first day he came here, but he never asked, knowing that this kind of question must be more sensitive.

"Because no one in the village can have their own offspring, and the people brought by the shepherd are the offspring.

I hate those shepherds, but I have to make a deal with those shepherds. Except for them, no one will bring people here again. Without them, those people will continue to stay in the wasteland and cannot live.

Today, I heard from Lao Yang that the weather in the wasteland is getting colder and colder, and everything has disappeared. I am afraid that there are no villages left, and there are no living people. You are the last ones. "

After the old sheep and the head of the village finished speaking, they looked at Yu Ziqing together, and the head of the village pointed to the black goat and the man in black.

"Now, how to deal with them is up to you to decide."

"Grandfather..." Erhan scratched his head and looked at him in a daze.

"Shut up." The chief yelled at Erhan roughly, not allowing him to speak at all, and looking at Erhan's appearance, he knew that he didn't understand anything. Nothing is long.

Such a thing, how dare to hand over the village to him in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Li Chang waved his cane and slammed it on Erhan's forehead.

Erhan remained motionless, staring blankly at the crutch that was knocking on his forehead, and after a pause, he squatted on the ground covering his forehead, pretending to howl twice.

Yu Ziqing remained silent, looking at the old sheep and the chief in front of him.

He now somewhat understands why the people in the village seem normal, but they are quite normal.

They used to be a group of people who could no longer survive and were about to starve to death. They were so obsessed with starving to death that they would rather have no blood relatives anymore, but also grasp the last straw of the village.

The people brought by the shepherd are the same people they used to be, and coming here is a gamble for their lives.

If you win the bet and take root in the village alive, you will be lucky; if you lose the bet, you will confess your life without regretting it.

It’s not that the shepherds need the village, but the village needs the shepherds. Without the shepherds, as guards, and after making livestock, the dependence on living materials is greatly reduced. It is impossible for ordinary people to cross the dangerous wasteland and reach the village.

But what Lao Yang said was another side. From what Lao Yang said, these two people did a lot of evil, not only active in the wilderness, the shepherds under the command of the black goat, but also radiated to Dagan and Dali, those who lived well, including Children are not spared.

According to Yu Ziqing's simple concept, these two guys are dead.

Now the two elders have left the choice to Yu Ziqing, and let Yu Ziqing choose.

Yu Ziqing was silent for a long time, and the elders didn't rush him, they just waited quietly.

Now, either kill these two, or make a deal, let them continue to kidnap people from farther places, such as the borders of Dagan and Dazhen, to renew the life of the village. The place is bound to not be a good place where every family has surplus food.

From the perspective of the villagers, this is the only hope in their hearts, the anchor point of survival, and the survival of the village must be the first. Whoever hinders is the sworn enemy, and it is impossible for them to stand on the sidelines. From a different perspective, to be a righteous person in the traditional sense who hates evil like hatred.

Looking down at the two guys on the ground, the two of them immediately rolled their eyes in fright, and the black goat was so frightened that the shit flowed out.

Yu Ziqing didn't know how many magical drugs these two had taken, how their five senses had been distorted, and he didn't know what he was like in their eyes, anyway, it must be quite scary.

"I want to detoxify them separately first, then ask for some information, and then kill them after asking.

Even if they are released this time, they will not be honest. Even if they send people later, no one knows if the people inside are all poor people who cannot survive. guy.

Next time, even if they are greedy for the Jinlan Mine and dare not do it openly, they will definitely plant some hidden dangers on purpose.

Furthermore, if you back down once, they will feel that you can back down a second time.

The wasteland has been abandoned, and the village can no longer rely on them. Since they can't have children, then slowly find a way to study to see if they can find a solution, and see if it's because of the environment, just change the environment, or if people have already left. problem.

After I leave, I will try to find a suitable place where I can settle down, and then I can take all the people in the village there safely.

I think no one in the village would care about the minerals here. "

Yu Ziqing finished speaking in one breath and looked at the second elder.

Without hesitation, the two elders immediately nodded together.

"Okay, just do as you say."

Yu Ziqing was a little surprised, and then realized that the two elders didn't ask him to choose one or the other.

Just wanted to see what he would do.

Maybe no matter what he chooses, the elders will nod.

Glancing at Erhan next to him, Yu Ziqing suddenly understood that they just want the younger generation to start to be in charge, how to choose is not a test at all, but what to do next is the test.

And the head of the village really regarded him as one of his own. The head of the village definitely knew better than him that the difficulties encountered in the village now knew that changes had to be made.

At the same time, I also understand better that the core of the village is the people, those who seek to survive, not the land.

Yu Ziqing looked at Lao Yang, he must have told the village chief a lot of things, otherwise, no matter how enlightened the village chief is, he wouldn't suddenly make such a big change.

Yu Ziqing came out, went to the kitchen to refine an antidote for the ecstasy medicine, and asked Erhan to remove the joints of the limbs and joints of the black-robed man Hei Wu, and clamped his torso and neck, and then fed him a portion of it. antidote.

After one dose of antidote, the black-robed man was still somewhat delirious, but his consciousness became much clearer.

He saw that everyone else had returned to normal, and his hearing had also returned to normal, but when he looked at Yu Ziqing, Yu Ziqing still had that indescribable appearance.

"I ask, you answer."

"Your Excellency can ask you whatever you want, and I promise you will know everything." The black-robed man was trembling, he felt a little difficult to breathe, and he didn't dare to lift his head, for fear of taking another look.

"Name."

"Black Friday." After speaking, Yu Ziqing was afraid that the name was fake, so he quickly added: "I never had a name when I was a child, and I was named Black Five until I was included in the organization."

"Identity, origin."

"I am the rein of the black goat on the seventh floor. I have been with the black goat to scout for information for the organization for many years..." The man in black was afraid that he didn't say enough details, and he was considered to be hiding something. He knew everything without saying anything. , It took half an hour to finish talking.

"Cultivation methods, spells, supernatural powers, and magic weapons."

"On the seventh floor, "Mist Appreciation of Truth" and "Secret of the West Wind", both spells are matched, and the magical powers are not good, and the magic weapons are just two magic weapons..."

The black-robed man said, pointing to his chest, and after getting permission, he took out a storage bag, took out a few books and two magical instruments, and put them on the ground together.

Once explained, they were very cooperative, and after tossing for a long time, Yu Ziqing looked at the rusty sword in his arms, and at some point, it had passed the judgment.

He moved on to the next question.

"Where is the station on the seventh floor?"

"In the northwest of Dagan..." the black-robed man spoke numbly with a dull expression, but just after he said a few words, his voice stopped abruptly.

He was frightened, his hands pinched his neck, a ring formed by tattoos emerged on his neck, those tattoos burst into faint light, instantly condensed into a strand, and sank into his head.

In the blink of an eye, the man in black slowly fell to the ground, his pupils dilated slowly.

died.

　Thanks for the 1-point reward of Baigou Guoxia and minor ぁ[-], thank you for your love.
